Shockwave therapy (SWT) has been used successfully since the late 1980s for the management of various musculoskeletal disorders including plantar fasciopathy, achilles tendinopathy, shoulder calcific tendinopathy, and lateral epicondylitis. Although there are some negative trials, there are now many
Trochanteric bursitis is an inflammation of the bursal sac overlying the greater trochanter of the femur. The etiology of this disease is unknown, but it is clinically characterized by chronic aching pain over the lateral aspect of the hip, which can be exacerbated by certain movements such as
Each year, an estimated 69 million people suffer from traumatic brain injury/concussion worldwide. In most patients with concussion, symptoms improve within 3 months. However, in some persons, symptoms persist. The cause(s) of post-traumatic headache are not entirely clear, which limits treatment
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine local control of brain metastases at 4 months after initial treatment with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in patients with > 3 melanoma brain metastases (MBM).
II. To determine cognitive decline at 4 months defined as a significant decline (>= 5 point decrease
1. What is the problem being addressed? Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS), also known as trochanteric bursitis, is a painful condition characterised by pain around the greater trochanter usually affecting middle aged women (1). It was first described, as trochanteric bursitis in 1958 (2).
Platelet participates in the process of forming and extending atherosclerotic plaques, and it is also a source of inflammatory mediators. This study is a randomized, open-label study, designed to test the hypothesis that ticagrelor inhibits inflammation and improves vascular endothelial cell
The aim of this study is to extend previous published findings that fish oil supplementation represents a beneficial treatment on exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB). An important question is how dietary fish oil supplementation fits in with the available armamentarium [e.g., leukotriene (LT)
Type 2 diabetes is a chronic and progressive disease that is strongly associated with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. The United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS) demonstrated that glycemic control alone only modestly reduces the risk of macrovascular disease among type 2 diabetic
Dexmedetomidine, was reported to prevent postoperative delirium in elderly patients following its use in intensive care units. Possible mechanisms included improved quality of sleep and an inhibitory effect on inflammation. A greater number of studies indicated that propofol has negative effect on
To test Study Objective 1, 'overweight' and 'non-overweight' persons with SCI will be compared at baseline for fasting and postprandial responses. For Study Objective 2, all persons tested for Study Objective 1 will undergo randomization to either 1 month of Salsalate (4.0 g/day) or placebo. An
People living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV+) infection have a 2-fold greater prevalence and incidence of T2DM and cardiovascular disease (CVD) than the general population. The investigators lack safe and effective treatments for these HIV related cardiometabolic complications despite the
At the first visit, each potential participant will undergo the screening examination, including laboratory tests. An electrocardiogram (ECG) is performed at baseline to exclude participants with evidence of myocardial infarction. Each participant will complete a Food Intake Record to assess typical
The aim of this study is to extend previous findings that nutritional supplementation or dietary modification can ameliorate exercise-induced bronchoconstriction. It has been shown in separate studies that fish oil and ascorbic acid (vitamin C) individually protect against EIB by improving pulmonary
The long-term objective of this project is to identify nutritional factors that can reduce the inflammatory component of obesity. Therapies to minimize obesity-related comorbidities are needed, and targeting inflammation may help slow the progression of obesity towards cardiovascular disease and
